HeyCorleone: I don't know what I can say in conclusion to this matter. But of Satan can cause any man to disobey the Word because of what he or she hears or sees then what is the fundamental difference between that person and Adam. That is why Jesus had to physically leave earth so that folks can have faith in God. That is what Christianity is all about. Faith in God and faith in His Word. |

If you did follow your heart and 100 percent undisturbed by your act, you won't post it here. For the fact that you posted it means a part of you is fighting against what you did. Do you believe in tithe? Did the Bible say pay your tithe to beggars? Good work is commendable but not at the expense of your tithe- your security from the corruption of this system. YOU BETTER GO PAY THAT TITHE BACK. Don't allow people who don't understand what tithe is to mislead you. My brother no where in the Bible was tithe given to a begger. Remember the story of the young prophet who listen to another prophet after God had given him certain instructions. Stick to God's instruction. Thanks |

mdokaba1: Note: Your tithe is meant to be paid into a Godly assembly of Children of God; to be used in the propagation of the gospel and compassion of Christ. i am not saying you did a wrong thing but most of those beggars don't worth it. hope he doesn't have both legs, hands and eyes. so that you know, some of them have built houses out of begging(it's business to them). it's a fact i know. imagine everybody paying tithe to beggars(people will even quit job to start begging) I would have preferred you get a mission body(CAPRO, Global Mission Board etc) Give where it will be used rightly. You could also enter a hospital and clear the bill of a patient who can't afford treatment (they are many) There are people who are genuinely in need of our financial help. they are all around us. God bless you. |

I agree with you It's Wonderful to give to the poor... INFACT the Bible specifically talks about dt. But Your Tithe is not a gift. Neither is it your money. Your Tithe is GOD's SHARE of your Money. And He Directs where it should be taken to. See Malachi 3:10[/quote] |

You have thrown your money away. Obedience is better than sacrifice. If you are a believer in Christ you have disobeyed God, simple!!. |

Should people cheat God? Yet you have cheated me!"But you ask, 'What do you mean? When did we ever cheat you?'"You have cheated me of the tithes and offerings due to me. 3:9 You are under a curse, for your whole nation has been cheating me. 3:10 Bring all the tithes into the storehouse so there will be enough food in my Temple. If you do," says the Lord Almighty, "I will open the windows of heaven for you. I will pour out a blessing so great you won't have enough room to take it in! Try it! Let me prove it to 3:11 Your crops will be abundant, for I will guard them from insects and disease. Your grapes will not shrivel before they are ripe," says the Lord Almighty. 3:12 "Then all nations will call you blessed, for your land will be such a delight," says the Lord. Malachi 3:8-12. Tithe is God's money but not yours, u can't administer it d way u want. If u like to give then give from d 90% left. U gave d 10% to d poor bcus it was easy for u to do. Given is sacrificial so give from ur 90%. |

God bless OP for his giving heart. There is a reward for what he has done. I won't address the question of whether he is right or wrong to give his tithe to the beggar because Scriptures can be used to prove both sides and I will keep my view to myself. What I will address is OP's belief that his feelings of satisfaction and elation are proof that he has done the correct thing. Those are just emotions and cannot be used to judge whether one has obeyed God or not. Jesus did not want to go to the cross and prayed in agony for hours for His Father to show him another way. Yet He was born to die on that Cross. A man who has been chasing a woman for a long time feels elation when he conquers her yet that is not a sign that he is doing Gods will. My point is that emotions alone are no barometer for knowing Gods will. Also let me shock you. You can go through all 4 Gospels and Acts and you will not find a SINGLE mention of Jesus or the Apostles giving money to beggars. There is only a mention of Jesus's money bag being used to help the poor in the Gospels and the same policy being carried out in Acts |

Student125: My God? Bribe? Go get your girlfriend or wife. Stand her completely naked before you and tell her to turn around 3 times ...slowly. Look at every inch of her body, see its perfection and structural harmony ....that lovely body! Now go to the nearest art store and ask for the best painting of a naked woman they have, try to get an Italian painting and see how much it costs. is that expensive painting better than your wife or girl. even by 1/10000000000? And yet you got all of her for free! She's yours both mentally and physically! Surely u don't she came to by herself do u? all that beauty and perfection? The painting was painted by a man who has a bank account your girl was created by a being who has the world in his Heaven account. The only way you can reach is through some 'phone booths' he allows to exist on earth. He doesn't deal in cash or inract direct with to avoid doing him harm just like sport of your dead father/grandfather will never touch u in dream to avoid doing u harm. God advices you donate money for the upkeep of the phone booths where go to call him and ask help and you call it bribe? Bro, do not pay your tithe ever again. its important. use it buy a good car but it never accepted spiritually due to the words of your own mouth. its not an ignorant speaking, sir. I was named by a being who refused to touch me dirctly as a baby for my own good. peace. |

Reference:I don't see any anger anywhere. When people like you don't want to see reasons in others opinion, you turn petty and make it look like someone is fighting you or the gospel......my brother, keep an opened mind. Thank God you said the bible has its own language, maybe you should ask for discernment of the Spirit Of God so that you'll understand the language of the holy bible instead of understanding the language of your pastor and every other beneficiaries of the TITHE. If you remember, the reason for this thread is because a faithful gave his tithe to the poor and homeless. As far as am concerned he got the best reward because God Is Not An Hypocrite. If you think he did it wrongly, I'll suggest you go and reevaluate your FAITH. Have a beautiful day sir. 3 Likes |
